Thankful Thursday

A few years ago Gaz and I climbed the Clisham on Lewis. This is Gaz (you can tell it isn't me 'cos I'm a bit older and have a beard and my stomach isn't quite as flat!). I'm thankful that Gaz is our son. He's a great son to have and a great friend as well.

Yes, to be thankful for having that part of you that is also your good friend. My daughter and I went through some tough times as she charged through her teen years, but she is a wonderful friend today that I absolutely treasure!BTW...Cool photo!

So Near

We may be apart but when I look at the sky and remember that we are standing on the same earth, looking at the same moon, somehow you don't seem so far away after all.

Life

Life isn't about dawdling to the grave, arriving safely in an attractive, wrinkle-free body but rather an adventure that ends skidding in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, totally worn out, screaming "Yee-ha. What a ride!!"

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… It’s about learning to dance in the rain.(With thanks to shabby girl of A Travelling Fish )

Feeling young is fabulous but growing old is a blessing!!!(A comment on this blog by Jaz of Treacy Travels.)

Something About Me

Like a Godwit I migrate. I live in New Zealand during the Southern Hemisphere's Summer and I live in Scotland's Outer Hebrides in the Northern Hemisphere's Summer (See Eagleton Notes). In both places I also live in Blogland which, for me, is as real a life as any other.
